Vino Nobile di Montepulciano

Cork

Riserva

On terraced slopes below the town of Montepulciano, the 15-hectare Santa Pia vineyard is composed of sandy loam soil with lots of pebbles. While a hail storm in July reduced quantities in 2016, harvest of healthy grapes began at the end of September. Whiffs of coconut mingle with exotic spice, plum and cherries. On the palate, sweet oak tannins embrace perfectly ripe luscious fruit. An underlying juiciness adds plenty of charm and drinkability to this smooth, supple wine though I'd wait another year for the wood notes to integrate further.
